could you mind be as shallow 
as my five o'clock shadow?
can things change this fast?
the one that you wanted is past tense
at present my presence no longer makes sense
at present you're too tense

now i never said "i'm the be-all and end-all"
but you had to end it all, as soon as you'd seen more
i never said i was worth less or worth less or worth more

does it have to be this ugly?
it's not like i stole your possessions or money
things change this fast
the one that i wanted is past tense
at present your presence no longer makes sense
at present i'm too tense

but you'd know it
you'd know it all

now i never said "i'm the be-all and end-all"
but you had to end it all, as soon as you'd seen more
i never said i was worth less or worth more
